We are delighted to announce that three of our Senior Operations Managers have achieved Level 5 Diploma in Crowd Science and Risk Analysis. Jimmy Norrie, Steve Ackerman and Andy Legg have all recently been successful on the course. Held at Wembley National Stadium, the course, run by e-Response, integrated the AP team with colleagues across a broad range of industry sub-sectors.

Jimmy Norrie, Senior Operations Manager summarises his experience, “The course has allowed me to further enhance and build on my existing knowledge of crowd management. I look forward to taking the theories and principles I’ve learnt and developed into practice this summer. Reaching Level 5 Diploma has been a fantastic achievement for us all, and will certainly strengthen the AP Team.”

Their many years’ experience, knowledge, and dedication to managing crowds at a whole host of events across the UK are now recognised academically and, in doing so, further develops the common understanding of management models promoted on the course.

“I'm thrilled to be adding to our ranks of Level 5 qualified managers.” Andrew Stevens, Director of Strategic Development and whom achieved the Level 5 Diploma last year, adds, “Training has always been the cornerstone to our service delivery and in broadening the base of our senior managers qualified to this level, I'm delighted to be already seeing the benefits in our planning and stakeholder liaison across major pieces of crowd management.”

Our new and existing clients can therefore feel safe in the knowledge that, when they do business with APS, they are receiving a service that complies fully with the very latest quality standards.
